Crockpot Low Fat Turkey Breast Recipe – And… Oh Yes, it is TASTY!
If you are looking for a healthier recipe for Thanksgiving, this is the one.
It’s the same story every year… 🙂 We love Thanksgiving and do eat so much!
Though… it isn’t fair for the ones who are watching their weight and still want their share of Thanksgiving…
Also… Enjoying yourself does not have to mean gorging yourself and feeling sorry for it later.
So, here’s a low-fat version of Slow Cooker Turkey…
- 1 and ½ pounds of Turkey Breast (boneless)
- 1 package of dry gravy mix
- 1 cup of Dry White Wine
- 1 Onion (Cut into four slices)
- 2 Small Potatoes
- 2 Small Turnips Baby Carrots
- Cut off any fat, season with pepper, and brown the turkey in a skillet sprayed with Pam.
- Add the sliced onion and brown.
- Make sure that the turkey is browned on all sides and ends.
- Turn with spoons so the breast is not pricked with a fork.
- Spray the crock pot with Pam and put carrots on the bottom, next add potatoes, turnips, and onions. (I like turnips, and others like potatoes, so I do both)
- Place turkey on top of vegetables.
- Mix gravy with the wine and a ¼ to ½ cup of water.
- Pour on top of the turkey and vegetables.
- Note: While browning the turkey, turn the crock pot on high to heat. You may add slow cooker spray (optional).
- Then heat the gravy mixture before pouring on turkey and veggies.
- Cover and cook on high for 2 hours and then turn to low for three hours.
- Alternatively, you may adjust the High and Low settings depending on your own schedule and crock pot size.
- Be sure to check every so often to make sure the turkey is moist.
- Thicken gravy if necessary.
Be safe!
